ADVAN V61 Exclusive design pattern
Newly designed tread pattern produces quietness and reliable wear / wet performance
- AInner Pattern Design
- The inner pattern offers superior wet performance. The goal here is excellent drainage, achieved by more groove surface area on the inside as opposed to the outside, as well as the narrow grooves etched into the innermost section.
- BOuter Pattern Design
- The outer design pattern determines dry performance. A special feature of this tire is its high level of rigidity and large contact area, which supports heavy loads by engendering solid grip when the vehicle turns a corner.
- CNon-Penetrating Lug Grooves
- Air pumping noise is produced when the compressed air generated between the tire and the road is released. The non-penetrating lug grooves prevent air from escaping, reducing noise.
- DLightning Edge Grooves
- Both sides of the center ribbing as well as the outer edges of the grooves are etched with a zigzag (lightning) shape. This enhances rigidity to yield edging that handles water film. The result is both better wet performance and overall handling.
- EFour Straight Grooves + One Narrow Groove
- In addition to four thick grooves, the design also features a narrow groove on the inside. Improvements have been made to the drainage when the car is travelling on wet surfaces, yielding superior performance in hydroplaning situations.
Delivers opposing wet performance and fuel economy at a high level
Silica does not mix easily with rubber, but is dispersed evenly by a blend of coupling agents and silica dispersants. Small grain particulate silica is used to improve wet performance and wear resistance by increasing adhesive friction. A.R.T. mixing is applied to enhance silica dispersion. It also offers a high balance of wear resistance, wet performance, and roll resistance.
A specialized profile accommodates heavy loads and strikes a perfect balance between wet performance and fuel efficiency
The profile is crucial in that it achieves a balance between various performance indicators. The ADVAN V61 profile is wide to offer greater ground contact. Additionally, genetic algorithms are applied using AI to create an optimal shape that optimizes both wet performance and fuel efficiency—which are a challenge to balance without compromising one or the other—while at the same time handling heavy loads.
